2023 Castle Rock Estate A&W Riesling, Porongurup

The first word that comes to mind is 'delightful'. It's an accessible, vibrant expression. Zingy acidity and compact lemon-lime citrus characters, while a nuance of subtle savouriness lends charm. The wine feels floral and fruity, too, a prettiness woven into the seriousness of its acid profile, and the length of flavour long. I see spicy pan-Thai cuisine in its future, and soon. MB 12% alc.
